HI,
I am having a solaris nis server and a file server running on solaris (pre installed).I need to add new workstations (linux) to this server, i stopped firewall and selinux on linux pc & configured network.I used authconfig to connect to nis server. In the NIS server cd /var/yp/src and edited netgroup & hosts.
and then used make command. Now If i give su <nisusername> it allows authentication but without home directory.
Plz tell me which file i need to edit in NIS inorder to get the homedirectory of logged user.
Thank you All
